Going dark

There’ll be no updates here for the next week, as I’m heading up to Scotland for a backpacking trip. Shiel Bridge to Ullapool via Strathcarron, Kinlochewe, and the wonderfully remote Letterewe Forest. Piccies and a report when I return.

CityDesk

Fog Creek have just released version 2.0 of CityDesk, the rather spiffy content management tool that I use to author this blog. If, like me, you bought a copy then its a free upgrade. Plus, if you bought the size-limited home-user version, you are rather generously upgraded to the unconstrained professional version.

I’ve downloaded the bits and played with the new version, and it seems like a great improvement on an already excellent product. A lot of niggling bugs have been fixed, and the scripting language has got some improvements. I’m not sure why they added a built-in image editor when there are so many good third-party editors, and it still uses the multiple top-level window approach that I personally dislike, but overall I’m enormously impressed and looking forward to using the new features.
